Message-ID: <55D263BB.2020206@chinilu.com> Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2015 15:44:11 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Sender: linux-btrfs-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Two years ago I installed btrfs across 8 hard drives on my desktop system with the entire system ending up on btrfs RAID 1. I did all of this with btrfs-progs-0.20. Since that time I have been dreading updating my system because of fear that the old btrfs volumes would become unstable in the process. I was finally driven to update by otherwise unresolvable security issues. I went from 32bit OS to 64bit OS with new btrfs-progs 3.19.1. I simply cannot believe that everything just worked without a hitch. In terms of btrfs the upgrade from what was then "experimental" to what is now "stable" was totally transparent. In the past two years I have had zero problems with btrfs involving multiple TB of data. I really appreciate all that you guys have done to make btrfs such an amazing file system.
